financial aid
harvard fin aid is just as important as admissions, maybe more so, and should be included with the admissions or next to that information. the harvard website says:
The Harvard Financial Aid Office works with each family to ensure access to the Harvard education students have worked so hard to secure. Applying for financial aid does not jeopardize a student's chance for admission. Indeed, the Admissions Committee may respond favorably to evidence that a candidate has overcome significant obstacles, financial or otherwise. All of Harvard's financial aid is awarded on the basis of demonstrated financial need - there are no academic, athletic or merit-based awards. Harvard meets the full need of every student, including international students, for all four years.
Reinforcing its commitment to opportunity and excellence across the economic spectrum, Harvard today (March 30) announced a significant expansion of its 2004 financial aid initiative for low-and middle-income families. Beginning with the class admitted this week, parents in families with incomes of less than $60,000 will no longer be expected to contribute to the cost of their children attending Harvard. In addition, Harvard will reduce the contributions of families with incomes between $60,000 and $80,000.

Harvard Extension School
Is it actually part of Harvard? How do the ALB and ALM degrees offered by the Harvard Extension School compare to the more traditional AB and AM degrees? Are they Harvard degrees?
--
Yes, but a recent article on the Extension School in the New York Times suggested that students therein are excluded from certain facilities such as the main libraries. Comment?
14:46, 17 March 2007 (UTC) not true. Students admitted to degree programs have access to all library facilities as any FAS student would. If you are "just taking a class", you don't unless the course instructor has arranged as such.
Please watch for vandalism here Hechung 22:55, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
COFHE Results in Views of Harvard
Clear bias against Harvard: The Boston Globe reported that Harvard student satisfaction with their undergraduate experience trails most other COFHE (Consortium on Financing Higher Education) schools. In the survey, 25% of Harvard undergraduates described themselves as "very satisfied" with their education, compared to an average of 37% at other COFHE schools, and 21% of Harvard students described themselves as "ambivalent" or "dissatisfied", compared to to an average of 14% at other COFHE schools. Harvard students who participated in the COFHE survey rated Harvard below the average of other COFHE schools on faculty availability, quality of instruction, social life on campus, and sense of community. An internal Harvard memorandum obtained by the Globe noted that "Harvard student satisfaction compares even less favorably to satisfaction at our closest peer institutions" relative to the COFHE averages. The Globe also quoted Lawrence Buell, former Harvard Dean of Undergraduate Education, as saying: "I think we have to concede that we are letting our students down."
First, this is a newspaper article claiming to have obtained confidential information, and this has not been independently verified or publicly acknowledged by Harvard officials. It can not be considered reliable information until confirmed by Harvard officials. Because Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, it should not present speculations as fact. Second, there is no information on the sample size, response rate, and margin of error and it is impossible to determine how significant the alleged differences were in reality. For all that matters, if the standard deviation between the several dozen COFHE schools is 10%, then the error bars for most schools would overlap and the difference between 25% and 37% will be buried within the statistical margin of error. In other words, statistically meaningless. The same thing for the dissatisfaction rates of 7% and 5%. Also true for the claim that Harvard students rated their school below the average of others. What is that actual difference? 0.01 on a scale of 10? You should not make sweeping generalizations and assertions like this without adequate data to back them up. The original author claimed that Harvard students were more dissatisfied than students at other schools, when the actual percentages were 7% and 5%, almost certainly an insignificant difference. This clear discrepancy makes one wonder if the author knows how to interpret statistics correctly. "Ambivalence" or "neutrality" is not the same thing as dissatisfaction. By combining these two categories, you do your best to push your agenda and to insinuate that Harvard students are not as happy as students at other schools. The fact is that the overwhelming majority of Harvard students (79%) are satisfied with their experience, 14% are neutral or ambivalent, and 9% are dissatisfied. I still don't know if any of these numbers are real, but I suppose it could be believable. If you can find similar kinds of consumer reviews for any commercial product, you would call it an awesome review. As far as Lawrence Buell's alleged comments, again, it is impossible to verify the truth of this information, but his response seems to be out of line with the actual data, when the alleged differences are rather minor. To the person who keeps on expanding this piece, please do not try to manipulate the numbers to suite your agenda. As far as the Crimson article is concerned, it is a student newspaper that by its nature runs articles critical of the school. It also publishes many, many articles that you wouldn't hesitate to label "Harvard boosterism" and would never quote. By making some quotes here and there out of context, you are distorting the reality and doing a disservice to the readers. I'm sorry that you seem to harbor a personal resentment toward Harvard but remember that Wikipedia editors should be neutral.
Please read my writing carefully and repeatedly if necessary as you clearly have difficulty understanding relatively straightforward concepts. I sincerely hope your job doesn't demand too much abstract reasoning skills. 1) my writing does not say that any of these sources are biased against Harvard; you are the one who's assembling pieces of information out of context and misrepresenting them. 2) I do not say that the Globe made up the whole thing; I say that its claims have not been verified to lend enough credence to the story. The Globe is a decent paper, but it does make mistakes on a regular basis (ever see the corrections columns?). I also seem to recall that several prominent journalists from the Globe and the New York Times have in fact been caught plagiarizing and making up phony stories in the past. Newspaper writers are always looking for stories and are prone to exaggerating, particularly when it comes to Harvard. This particular story was based on information that was apparently obtained through illegitimate means, if it really existed. The information itself is very sketchy and incomplete, as I detailed previously. The data taken at face value simply does not support the contention that Harvard students are more dissatisfied than others. At best, it might show that the number of satisfied students is slightly less (although it's not at all clear if this is a statistically significant difference), but of course this isn't too exciting so the writer exaggerated. It is this misinterpretation that makes me question the whole story. Even if you accept the information as is, what most people would notice first is that the overwhelming majority of Harvard students are satisfied. What you are doing is trying your best to suppress this absolutely crucial piece of information and put the study in the worst light possible. This reinforces my conclusion that you are biased (please see point #1 above in case it's already slipped your mind). 3) I did not refer to any ranking issues or "pro-Harvard" boasting issues in my comments above and it's irrelevant to the present discussion. Your reasoning seems to be that, since there's a lot of stuff here that makes Harvard look good, I must throw in some really negative stuff about Harvard, even if it's total garbage. Your comments betray your bias (please see point #1 above in case you've forgotten). 4) Who are all the "Harvard administration sources" that you mention? Why is Buell the only one who's quoted when he is not even the current Dean, only a former Dean? Where are the comments by other people present? Where are the comments by the Dean of Harvard College, the current Dean of Undergraduate Education, the Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, and the President of the University? If this is such a serious issue as portrayed, why was this supposed revelation totally ignored by everyone? Can you be sure that the writer did not pick the absolute worst-sounding comment from the selection to maximize the shock value? You can't, since you don't have access to the original and complete data. That's what I mean when I say that the information is not reliable because it has not been verified (please see point #2 above in case you've forgotten). 5) Please do not throw around phrases like "the NIH study showed that..." hoping to impress people. Most NIH researchers are a couple of notches below the level of Harvard professors, except for a handful. There are pl
